After a hard foul by Andrew Bogut, LeBron James lost his balance and barreled down hard into the baseline cameramen, cutting his head on a camera.
Most observers noted that the league needs to do something about the cameramen being so close to the court to avoid accidents in the future. Andrew Bogut disagrees. In his eyes, LeBron was to blame for the whole incident.
“I think he jumped into the cameraman,” Bogut told the media after the game, according to USA Today’s Sam Amick.“Yeah, I think he came down and took two steps and then fell into the cameraman. I definitely, definitely didn’t hit him that hard.”
Bogut is definitely right that James took two steps before falling into the crowd of photographers and cameramen, but it looks like he just lost his balance. Still, the Warriors had very little sympathy for James. Later in the game, Andre Iguodala pretended to be injured, only to laugh it off and continue to play.
The Warriors definitely brought an edge to Game 4, with Draymond Green calling the finals "a dogfight" and David Lee having some choice words for Matthew Dellavedova. Even coach Steve Kerr admitted he lied to the media about the changes in the starting lineup. He said, "Sorry, but I don't think they hand you the trophy based on morality. They give it to you if you win."
Embracing the darkness worked for the Warriors in Game 4, as they tied the series with a win. Expect them to continue to show no mercy or empathy for the Cavaliers going forward.
